Getting Transcriptions Wrong

The bridge looks like it's maybe an 1/8" too close to the bridge. Pushing it further back a little probably would bring the saddle down a bit. But to echo what Sgosnell said, you really need...

Oh, that's a very attractive price. I see what you mean!

I import any track to be transcribed into my DAW session window, adjust the project tempo to the track tempo, then check by zooming-in any unrecognized rhytm against the grid - if visible in the...

Pauln, your approach is called pulling licks. A great number of players do this instead of full transcriptions. I think pulling licks is a great recommendation to get ear training going, just...

Yes I get hung up on, but no I don't simplify or ignore it. Rhythm is huge when you're transcribing, and I think is probably the best argument for writing transcriptions down at all. Mind if I...

The distance from the guitar top to the top of the saddles isn't really telling you anything. To make an informed decision about whether there's a problem, you need to know the string action height...

I transcribe a lot. It has improved my ears and also of course I can see what improvisers like Bud Powell or Woody Shaw are doing melodically against chord changes. But I often get hung up on...
